Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson's five-year, $56 million deal included $35 million in guarantees, but that guaranteed money is void as a result of Johnson's suspension being upheld. Johnson will also have to forfeit more than $1 million of his $10 million signing bonus.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson is expected to play this week against the Detroit Lions, according to sources. Johnson has appealed his 10-game suspension for a second violation of the NFL's performance-enhancing drug policy. He is eligible to play during the appeal process.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson had his appeal hearing for his 10-game suspension Tuesday, Oct. 4, but a decision is unlikely to be announced this week. Johnson is expected to be able to play in Week 5 until that announcement is made.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson has been suspended 10 games Tuesday, Sept. 20, pending appeal. The appeal will be heard Oct. 4, and if the arbitrator upholds the suspension, he'll miss the next 10 games beginning Oct. 9. He would be eligible to return Dec. 12, for the final three games.

Updating an earlier report, Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson received a six-year, $63 million deal with $35.5 million guaranteed. The deal makes him one of the highest-paid offensive tackles in the league.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson, DE Fletcher Cox and impending free-agent DE Vinny Curry have had discussions about long-term deals.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson was drafted to play right tackle, but he has been working on the left side in practice just in case he is needed. "I think it's a good sign," Johnson said. "There's not very many people who can play both. The more practice I get playing left and right is going to help me if something happens to (OT Jason Peters)."

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson said he doesn't want to hold out and thinks a deal will get done in the next week or two. It's believed offset language that many teams seek for their first-round picks in order to avoid paying the full freight of a contract for a player that they cut before their rookie deals have expired.

Philadelphia Eagles OT Lane Johnson has seen time with the first-team offense at right tackle during organized team activities because OT Dennis Kelly has been working with left tackle. Johnson has also lined in the slot when the team ran a wide receiver screen during practice.

Philadelphia Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland said OT Lane Johnson has been everything the team has thought he would be but that he needs to work on some mechanical things. "From a skill set standpoint, he's really good. He's long. His arms are long. He's explosive. He's everything that we thought he would be. Now, the things that we knew about even coming into the draft, we've got to get him into some really good habits right now. That's just everyday stuff -- over and over and over so it becomes a good habit," Stoutland said.
